You need to carefully consider whether the offer being made to you is good enough for you to give up your rights and potential claims against the company.  You will need advice on the merits of those claims in order to help you make your decision.

Our lawyers are very experienced at negotiations and will have a good understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each parties’ position in order to be able to put forward the best arguments on your behalf.

Yes, in order for a settlement to be legally binding and enforceable, you must have received independent legal advice on its terms.
